Virtual Server Settings
The virtual server service is a way to simulate multiple servers on the intranet.
You have several IP addresses within your LAN. These IPs are not visible to
the users from the Internet. When servers are installed in the office that need
to be seen from the Internet, we establish some forwarding rules to deal with
the packet from the Internet users and direct the SA to forward the specific
packets to the specific IP address. Users from the Internet could be allowed
to access the specific server on your LAN. You can configure different IPs to
act as different virtual servers. For example, the users accessing port 21 will
be directed to “172.16.2.1”. “172.16.2.1” could be a FTP server. Users
accessing port 80 will be directed to “172.16.2.2”, an HTTP server on the
LAN. For users outside the LAN, they will feel like many services are running
on a single host. Please follow the steps below.
1. Select Enable radio button in Virtual Server.
2. Enter the IP address , in LAN will be set as a virtual server.
3. Select the Protocol.
4. Enter the number in Ports, the users accessing the port will be
directed to the virtual server in step 2.
5. Please repeat the steps above to establish more virtual servers
